1. writes are not blocked during compaction 2. compaction cannot have a constant time since the files/regions are getting bigger 3. beside the GC pauses (which seems to be the best candidate here) on either the client or RS (what are your setting BTW, and data size per insert), did you presplit your regions or a split is occurring during the execution? 4. did you look at the logs? is there any operation that is taking too long there (in 0.92 you can configure and print any operation that will take long time)
